    I'll chime in here....I have the blue, red and green Alphas from Toynami and the Blue Beta. I display them only. As stated above...the Alpha+Beta is impressive as a display peice. I stickered (the ONE thing Toynami did get right is the quality of the stickers...very good) and panel lined them all and they do look good in all modes IMHO. I have transformed my Beta many times--no problems there--legs are a little loose, but no biggy. The Blue alpha's hands have crumbled, shoulder missle launcher door is busted, and it's floppy in Battroid, but I still think I got a fairly "good" one. However..I leave it in fighter mode with the Beta. As for my Red and Green guys--I have transformed them once. Carefully. I just look at them...but then again...I just really look at my Beagle's and Yamato's as well.... Someday I'll have to track down a red and green Beta for cheap...

    Agreed. I think a set of 1:72 water slides would do a lot for the VF-17S.

    My life has consisted of decals....lots and lots of decals...so..many,,,decals.. getting close though! I must say the Acreations decals are awesome! The few that come with the kit itself...SUCK.

    well, after deciding my first base color wasn't to my liking, and not wanting to do just all greys, I decided to try something new and different. Went with a new base coat of Model Master Metallizer "Burnt Metal" and then after 3 hours of masking (which nearly drove me nuts...) hit the areas that I'm going to appy the armor decals to with Neutral Grey. I think it looks kinda cool actually....have to wait and see how the decals look before I start dirtying up the old bucket...

    It's very close to Model Master Neutral Grey from the looks of it...

    I have used Future in my airbrush. Just pour in and spray. Windex for cleanup. Easy.

    Me thinks the days of Toynami doing high end stuff like the bikes is OVER. They can't even seem to get a simple re-release of a battlepod out once a year.....can I get an AMEN????

    If you added the 17 in to that pic...sadly you could probably buy a cheap used car for the money in that pic! LOL

    The Kai is amazing..grab one...you won't regret it..and yes...the sound booster IS very cool looking and makes a fantastic display piece once you get it on the Kai....just don't breath on it.... all Yamato had to do was make it so it would have attached like the VF-11's Fast Pack Booster things.."click"..ok cool...it's not gonna fall off!!

    Took a break from real modeling to do something I know I'm good at..LOL....detailing VF-1's. Here's my newest and officially last Yamato VF-1 1:60 ver. 2. Took about 4 hours. just wish Yamato would include a set of waterslides as well as stickers with all their Valks...oh well.

    Spent about 4 hours of New Years Day detailing and stickering Mr. AngelBird....Only wish Yamato would include a set of water slide decals in addition to stickers for all their Valks. This is officially my last VF-1, so I wanted to take my time and make him look pristine. After not handling any of my 1:60 ver. 2's in about a year...I have to say...I think the VF-1's are still the best effort they have put forward overall. With the Kai and Blazer running a close 2nd. Enjoy...

    dude-----seriously----read Jenius' review first because it is DEAD on....I thought it would be cool to have it as well...and ummm...well....it just isn't. I'm serious---wait until u can get it for like $50. Don't pay any more than that. It's like Yamato over-engineered the CRAP out of everything BUT the part they needed to--how it attaches to the Kai. Not cool.... . Save your $$$.

    I had a Pioneer for many years that served me well. But, like Keith said....import and rip to DVD. Keep the LD and display it or something.

    YF-19 leg cracking

    derex3592 replied to Lolicon's topic in Toys

    Like I stated earlier in the thread....my double nuts version seems fine....however....IF Yamato does a Ver. 3 off of the VF-19 mold...hold off for that one.
